A real multivariate polynomial p(x1, . . . , xn) is said to sign-represent a Boolean function f : {0, 1}n {-1, 1} if the sign of p(x) equals f(x) for all inputs x {0, 1}n. We gi...
Majority of practical multivariate statistical analyses and optimizations model interdependence among random variables in terms of the linear correlation among them. Though linear...
In the present paper, we investigate the approximation of a function by a polynomial with floating-point coefficients; we are looking for the best approximation in the L2 sense....
In many design tasks it is difficult to explicitly define an objective function. This paper uses machine learning to derive an objective in a feature space based on selected examp...
In this paper, we proposed Fittest Individual Refinement (FIR), a crossover based local search method for Differential Evolution (DE). The FIR scheme accelerates DE by enhancing...
